Rate this lesson: 
The aim of this page is to build a comprehensive language list to replace the old list on the polyglotclub site.
We have to create a new list in the columns polyglotclub2 and polyglotclub2_lib to replace the old list (column polyglotclub) with the help of the other lists: community1, community2, wikipedia and wikipedia2.
Columns description
- old: OLD LIST. language name in English. DO NOT CHANGE
- old_lib: OLD LIST. autonym. DO NOT CHANGE
- community1 and community2: come from 2 well known language communities so those lists "should" be of good quality.
- wikipedia: source. language name in English.
- Wikipedia2_lib: source. autonym. Stay with wikipedia.
- Wikipedia3: source. those not appeared in Wikipedia and Wikipedia2.
- Ethnologue: language name in Ethnologue.
- new: NEW LIST. MAIN language name in English. Length of this field should be short.
- new_lib: NEW LIST. autonym. if several names, separated by a comma. Example: name1, name2, name3. It can be useful because if users type any name in the drop-down list, they will find the language.
- new_lib2: NEW LIST. Other English names separated by a comma. Example: name2, name3. It can be useful because if users type any name in the drop-down list, they will find the language.
- dead: dead languages. 1 if 'yes', 0 if 'no', blank if unknown
- spoken_only: only spoken languages. 1 if 'yes', 0 if 'no', blank if unknown
- reviewed: confirmed to be a language or a major dialect (not mutually intelligible with others), whether or not it will be adopted. 1 if 'yes', 0 if 'no'.
Limits
- The number of languages must be lower than 500 for technical reasons.
To do
- Add the missing languages listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_languages_by_number_of_native_speakers
- Add the old_lib column
Updates
It is important to keep the link between the OLD LIST and the NEW LIST as this will be used to update the database (example: we need to update the languages on each member profile).
DELETE
A language is deleted (use strike-though).
Member profile update: YES
- "Imho" does not exist.
- "Middle Eastern" is not a language.
- "Iranian" and "Persian" are the same. "Iranian" is less common, should be removed.
- "Rhaeto-Romance" is not a language, but many.
RENAME
A language is renamed (polyglotclub and polyglotclub2 on the same line)
Member profile update: NO
- "Min (Taiwanese)" rename in Chinese Taiwanese
- "Ido-Reformed Esperanto" should be "Ido".
- "Assyrian" is less precise than "Assyrian Neo-Aramic".
- "Bhutani" is less precise than "Dzongkha".
- "Byelorussian" is outdated, it should be "Belarusian" now.
- "Cambodian" is less common than "Khmer", at man multilingual sites.
- "Fiji" should be "Fijian".
- "Inupiak" is less common than "Inupiaq".
- "Kirgis" is less common than "Kyrgys".
- "Laotian" is less common than "Lao", and there is also a typo (added an "h").
- "Nauru" should be "Nauruan".
- "Oriya" is less common than "Odia".
- "Quechuan" may be "Quechuan languages".
- "Sangro" does not exist, but there is a similar name "Sango".
- "Sesotho" is less common than "Sotho".
- "Setswana" is less common than "Tsuwana".
- "Siswati" is less common than "Swazi".
- "Slovenian" is less common than "Slovene".
- "Sudanese" should be "Arabic Sudanese", or be removed.
- "Tonga" should be "Tongan".
- "Egyptian" should be considered as an ancient language instead of a part of Arabic.
- Berber is not a language, but a group: rename in Berber languages
MERGE
Several languages become 1 language (several polyglotclub for the same polyglotclub2)
Member profile update: YES
- "Moldovian" is actually Romanian. It should be removed.
- "Singhalese" and "Sinhalese" are the same, "Singhalese" is less common. It should be removed.
- "Provencal" is a part of Occitan. Some people claim "Provençal" is a different language. I think we should keep it.
BREAK
A language becomes several languages (polyglotclub and polyglotclub2: choose the most spoken polyglotclub2): We do not know to which member give the right language, so we have to choose only one language.
Member profile update: YES
- Gaelic is divided into Scottish Gaelic and Irish Gaelic. There are "Irish" and "Gaelic" in the list, that "Gaelic" should be "Scottish Gaelic". Changing "Irish" into "Irish Gaelic" is optional.
- Bihari is a language group.
- Creole is a mixture of many languages.
- "Frisian" should be broken into three: West, North, Saterland.
